Johnny Cash died in 2003 at the age of 71. Recognized as one of the best-selling artists of all time, Cash’s popular songs include “I Walk the Line,” “Folsom Prison Blues,” “Ring of Fire,” “Get Rhythm,” and “Man in Black.” He was relatively quiet in the ’80s and early ’90s until collaborating with Rick Rubin. The first album released posthumously was 2006’s fifth American Recording album. Consisting mostly of cover songs, including Hank Williams’ “On The Evening Train,” the highlight is his own “Like the 309.” The album proved Cash was still capable of writing good music just weeks before his passing.
